1. In what way does ICT enhance learning and teaching?
- Links concrete with the abstract
- it promote and engage learning
- provide opportunities for collaborative learning.
- integrate visual,audio and text based learning into interactive video and animation
- it provides the children the opportunities to explore and experience of the outside world without moving out of their school environment.
- Attract student attention
- save time
Teachers are using ICT in their lessons because it motivates pupils to learn. There are no disciplinary problems. It gives immediate feedback and a wide access to information. It makes self-study possible. It is reliable and doesn’t have ‘off days’.
2. How should you use a computer in the primary classroom setting?
According to Sladek, teachers can use a computer as an enhancement to the learning environment. Computers should not be used as a toy. Rather, they should be used to support the curriculum being delivered in the classroom. Moreover, computers are an enhancement to education and should be seen as just this. But in Brunei, some teachers still unaware in applying this technology in their teaching. Some still having trouble on operating the computers in class.
By using computers in class, students can easily familiarise and have the ability to operate them independently. This is the same in high school, middle school and elementary school, along with providing additional interactive tools for students to practice new materials learned. Students must be able to use technology in order to function in society and one day to be successful in the workplace. Laptops are just one supporting tool in a long list of technological support for education.
